It has many technical improvements which are boring but needed.  The is a post from lava about it a few pages back if you bother to look.

Went back 30 pages, nothing there?

How 'bout integrating a GirlsGoneBitcoin watch + fee option in the wallet?

There will be a new wallet in the new year, it will be mandatory update.  Dont know exactly when, but you will be given plenty of notice.

New features?
Hope it's not just the 400000 block fix, but some actual new functions for the wallet.

"to endure to achieve"
I just noticed in the OP that you are linking to cgminer v 3.3.0 - is that the one you recommend to use or is it just an outdated link..?

Guys, why it takes so long for my Sexcoin Wallet to connect to the Sexcoin Network? I have it already open since 2 hours and it shows me only 1-3 connections to the Sexcoin Network! I noticed lately it takes a lot longer until it connects with the network... this was not an issue 1 week ago Sad
Having the exact same problem. Today it worked for a while but eventually got stuck at 411838 with v0.6.4.1-RC1 on Windows. Got only 1 active connection. Anyone got a fresh list of addnodes that are working and reliable? Those I found so far on various forum posts haven't improved the situation very much - connections jumped up to 3 but it's still not syncing new blocks.

If you are having difficulties with connections, try this:

  • Make sure you have the windows patched client if you are running on windows. http://lavapit.lavajumper.com/download
  • shut down your client
  • delete your 'peers.dat' file
  • make sure you haven't turned off irc
  • turn on UPNP if your network supports it
  • start your client
  • watch it for 1/2 hour


at a minimum, add this to sexcoin.conf

addnode=74.122.234.52:9560

This is a known, stable node.

If your client is stuck around block 400000, download the fixed client below!

In the zip file is a replacement sexcoin-qt.exe
Close your client, overwrite sexcoin-qt.exe with the one in the zip file.
Restart your client.

Nothing else is necessary.

Blockheight Fix Windows Client:

Does this only affect the windows client?

OK I get this error when running the linux sexcoin-qt in terminal

Desktop/sexcoin/sexcoin-qt: error while loading shared libraries: libboost_system.so.1.48.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Am I missing library files or what ?

What do I need ?

Wthanks.


You have to install libboost1.48-all-dev

For Ubuntu:
http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise/libboost1.48-all-dev

Ah, I see now - I moved to mint 16 which uses later versions of libboost.

No it doesn't want to work, won't install by the deb package installer - gets a dependency error.

Has this wallet client been tested to work on Mint 15/16 ?

Could you guys recommend me a pool?  I am having low yields at both outhashed p2pool and thec0de pool.  I was having reasonable yields until recently.

notNigel: Jeah install "Boost C++ Libraries", Google or go to www.boost.org.

Listen Devs (or all) this is important:

We need to change Sexcoin Mining algorithm or Sexcoin will never gain value.
If we stay with Scrypt all value will be destroyed by Coin-Switching-Pools like https://www.multipool.us/ or http://www.middlecoin.com/
We will never be able to leave shitcoin level of all random Scrypt alts.

This happended already in praxis with many altcoins before and at the moment with DOGE. Look at DOGE-Threads. And this is proven in theory, by many clever posters, including myself.
If you can understand German read: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/diskussion-theorie-wertkonvergenz-algorithmengleicher-crypto-coins-374911

It's a fact, with the distribution of coin-switching pools all coins with the same mining algorithm will have/get (in the long run) the same value.

--->

Sexcoin has no chance, sharing Scrypt-algorithm with 100 shitcoins.

--->

We have to change algorithm.

I proposed the devs a few weeks ago to implement an algorithm that would increase diff right after it detects an increase of X% after a number of Y blocks and decrease it when the new hash has quit. It's easier said the done but is my understanding Lava included some sort of implementation in the new client

And you're right! Thanks rpg. btw, look for a PM soon

By the way if you seek a solution quote from stablecoin :

Quote
The new difficulty algorithm will keep the multipools from jacking the difficulty up and abandoning the coin. The benefits of this should be obvious to all involved.

You may be wondering why the block time was 'changed' to 60 seconds. Blocks were already being generated at this rate due to multipool influence. Since the coin has been launched, the multipools have been wreaking havoc on the difficulty, causing less blocks to be created each day than what was programmed in. If you check the block explorer, typically around 1400-1600 blocks are being created per day, this averages out to about 60 seconds. To avoid a sharp increase in the supply rate, the new rates have been created with this in mind.

Changing the block target time to 60 seconds keeps the generation rate in line with what it has been. The same amount of blocks will be generated each day. However, the key difference is that now the blocks will be going to dedicated StableCoin miners, and not to the multipools. This benefits the miners, of course, but also benefits the investors/speculators. When multipools mine, they instantly dump the coin at market price. Steady miners are less likely to do this.

These new settings will also decrease the amount of orphans/rejects experienced, as blocks will have additional buffer time to propagate the network. This is especially important as we move into more and more foreign markets.

So, all in all, we have the same amount of coins being generated, but with more of them going to the steady miners, and less being dumped on the exchanges. A win/win scenario for everyone - except the multipools, of course.

It stuck at block 400000. You have to apply the fix
